★ 2017 前三十六張心頭好西洋搖滾年度佳片

    Best (Art-Pop/ Indie Rock/ Indie-Folk/ Electronic) Albums of 2017
    今年(2017年)的一些最受媒體青睞好評的流行音樂大致有幾個特點,許多新生代的創作歌手越來越喜歡用專輯創作來聲明他們所關心的周遭事物,大如政治、社會議題,小如成長過程的心路歷程,以及他們所處的位置。像聖文森結合了她超高能量的電吉他及她拉子的慾望觀點;SZA融合了現代R&B音樂和她對自己出身階層的自我評價;Jlin為芝加哥Footwork類型音樂增添了實驗性的大膽嘗試;或Valerie June重新探索了已經略微停滯十多年的Americana音樂。
    說起來,英美流行音樂經過了美國大選後,也跟著川普過了一整年的動蕩,歌聲中時時可聽到充滿憤怒,困惑和反抗之聲。然而流行音樂也隨著這幾年的轉變而更顯無所適從,因為流派風格的界線逐漸模糊難辨,音樂創作者為了尋找新的創作靈感,就得游移在怪奇物語的時代中的同時,持續尋找自我的身份和創作目的。
    就許多面向來聽,Lorde的專輯就宛如一場美國年輕女性的內心小劇場,有些時刻她讓人聯想起早年的Kate Bush,但有時她又唱的有點用力過頭,更重要的是,裡頭大量的電子合成器音色並沒有打中我,這是為何我並未把她擺在那麼前面的主因,然而不可否認的,它確實是張好專輯。
    相對之下,許多老團的重新復出,應當是這一年另一個最值得一提的現象,尤其曾經經歷過八、九零年代的老樂迷而言,能夠在多年之後聽到Slowdive重新復團且交出令老樂迷喜愛的新作,甚至帶出一波新的復出浪潮,相信是許多老樂迷今年最津津樂道的佳話了。
